Panthers offensive coordinator Scott Turner will interview with the Redskins for their OC vacancy, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com (on Twitter). Incumbent Kevin O’Connell remains the frontrunner for the job, but Rapoport hears that Turner could wind up as the team’s quarterbacks coach if he doesn’t land the OC post. 
The Redskins wasted little time in hiring new head coach Ron Rivera and, in turn, Rivera started building out his staff immediately. On New Year’s Day, Rivera tapped Jack Del Rio as his new defensive coordinator.
Rivera is already familiar with Turner’s skillset – Turner served as Rivera’s QB coach in Carolina, up until Rivera’s dismissal. After Rivera was ousted, Turner was bumped up to OC as his father, Norv Turner, was transitioned to a different role.
The Turner family, of course, also has history with the Redskins. Norv served as the Redskins’ head coach from 1994-2000.
Isn’t his name Norv?
No…it’s Scott.
He’s Norv’s father
Actually he’s Norv’s son
Rivera seems to have a lot of control. what does he do with the 2 pick? QB? Linebacker? OL? Trade out for more picks?
Will Trent Williams come back for him?
Hopefully trade back as many times as possible. They need lots of help, not 1 potential superstar.
Although I agree that with a team like Washington that still needs a ton of pieces, trading down would be an excellent way of rebuilding, it’s going to be really hard for a defensive minded coach like Ron Rivera to pass up on DE Chase Young. Having that guy terrorizing Dak, Carson, and Eli 2.0 six times a year is extremely valuable.
An impact player can cover up a lot of other faults.
Given the state of the QB’s in Carolina, not sure he’d be on my list.
